Perfect stay

Pros: Clean, great staff and fantastic location

Very Good

We would stay there again.

Pros: The room is big, well equipped, nice and clean. The bathroom was really nice with an amazing shower. The location is really good. I would recommend it and stay there again. Great value for money.

Cons: It was very noisy when our neighbours came home in one of the nights, so the sound isolation is not the best there. It was very loud.
Lorraine

Good

Good

Pros: The rooms themselves are spacious, and clean. Tunnocks is always a nice addition. Glass frosted doors for the bathrooms though? Noooope. The lift is lower than me, so always take the stairs. Reception is an absolute sauna???? We always struggled to find the door to the hotel, but I'm.kinda a bit dim. Overall, would stay here again and completely avoid breakfast and book in elsewhere.

Cons: The staffing levels are shocking. This morning (28/03/24) myself, friend and my daughter opted for the breakfast buffet... and lemme tell you that was a mistake. From the get go, incredibly lack luster selection of fruit, few bits of cheese and cold cuts, the toaster? Pls don't even get me started. There was only ONE staff member tending to reception & breakfast at the same time. I felt nothing but sorry for the poor girl, at one point I just felt like I was harassing her, cause who.else was there for me to ask? Fair few people down for breakfast, and I was yet to see a single person served their food. Orders were taken, and we waited over an hour before we gave up and just cancelled breakfast. So we checked out rather hungry. Again, not the girls fault, she shouldn't have to deal with all that on her own!

Poor

Won’t be booking here again

Cons: Bags of laundry in the hallway - our first view of the hotel from the lift. Large cracks in the walls. Stains on the walls. Badly fitting glass door between bathroom and bedroom. Mould on the blind in the bedroom. Only one bedside light for the two beds.

Disappointing

Disappointing and poor value for...

Pros: City centre location and clean room.

Cons: Next door to loud bar - could hear music clearly in our room until 3am both nights. Staff were not very helpful and breakfast was pretty poor. Would not recommend

Passable

Pros: Staff was very friendly and welcoming.

Cons: To get to our bedroom we had to walk across the beer garden of the pub beside the hotel. Construction work was also going on at the same time where we had to walk through this also. The room was located on the other side of the hotel up a flight of stairs that was very dirty and unappealing.

7/10

Good

Good

Pros: The staff are very friendly and always available to help and answer questions. Breakfast was also good, but it lacked some basics, such as yogurt and fruits. The room was a bit small (S size) but comfortable for 2 people.

Cons: Since there is a bar right next door there was often loud music until 3 in the morning. It was not very loud in the room, but one can still hear it.
Ayla

5/10

Fair

Comfortable but lots of issues...

Cons: WiFi + Television + internet did not work, staff mixed up our room stay with another room we were supposed to be in, due to that, staff phoned our room at 6:45am the day we checked out.
